\u00a0of studies involving nearly 130,000 medical students across 47 countries. The United States is no exception \u2014\u00a0suicide is more common in medical school\u00a0than any other educational setting, according to the American Medical Student Association.Leaders at the Keck School of Medicine are addressing those challenges with an array of wellness resources to help students thrive during their time in medical school and as they continue their careers in medicine.USC medical student wellness: check-ins helpFor the past two years, USC\u2019s medical school has provided what it calls Keck Checks \u2014 mental health check-ins for the school\u2019s 186 first-year medical students. The 15-minute sessions with a clinical psychologist are offered to all, Young said, ensuring that nobody feels singled out or stigmatized for meeting with a mental health professional. Amy Jahr, a third-year medical student at USC, said she appreciates the reminder to take a moment to assess her health and well-being, even if she feels like everything is under control. \u201cIf you don\u2019t have that time set aside, it\u2019s easy to get sucked into other activities and put it off and end up in crisis mode later,\u201d she said. The program helps medical students stay mindful instead of putting off issues that can become a crisis later.

The Keck School of Medicine of USC emphasizes health and well-being among its aspiring doctors, countering the discipline\u2019s grueling training experience of years past<\/h4>\n

To counteract burnout among medical students, the Keck School of Medicine of USC has established a new wellness curriculum featuring mindfulness, anxiety management and stress prevention.<\/p>\n

Medical students now receive support and training in areas from physical and mental health to academic performance and financial knowledge, said Chantal Young, USC\u2019s director of medical student wellness.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a holistic, comprehensive program,\u201d Young said, adding that students surveyed about their satisfaction give the curriculum high marks. Launched in fall 2016, the initiative seeks to lessen the anxiety and stress of the medical school experience.<\/p>\n

Aspiring doctors face a complicated array of factors that increase their risk of mental health problems. Students are placed in high-stress situations with immense pressure to perform. They put much of that pressure on themselves due to perfectionism. Many of them view seeking support for anxiety, isolation or depression as a sign of weakness.<\/p>\n

Young also oversees yearly mental health surveys for all students and promotes the use of free, weekly drop-in meditation and yoga classes. Students can consult with a dietitian to assess their nutrition, take free boot camp workout classes and use free \u201cbike desks\u201d to exercise while they study. In addition, all third- and fourth-year medical students must take a bonus wellness day once every six weeks, as they complete rotations or clerkships in various specialty departments. Several student-led initiatives also focus on wellness. Keck Peer Support provides confidential one-on-one peer counseling, weekly group debriefs, study breaks and a monthly newsletter with responses to anonymous questions from students. Medical students also serve as wellness representatives, sharing their concerns with school leaders and organizing events like visits with therapy dogs and ice cream socials.<\/p>\n

Feedback on USC wellness initiatives<\/h3>\n

Students can provide suggestions for improvements, too. Andrea Moore, a health promotion specialist with\u00a0USC Student Health<\/a>, helped establish a student advisory committee to offer feedback, and she meets informally with students to discuss their experiences and needs.<\/p>\n

She asks questions such as \u201cAre your classes in a basement with no windows? Is the frequency of exams really unhealthy? Are there opportunities for you to make social connections?\u201d<\/p>\n

Those insights have helped Moore identify areas for improvement, such as the need for more healthful food options or dedicated wellness resources for master\u2019s and PhD students based at the USC Health Sciences Campus.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe other thing we see a lot is lack of social connectedness, especially for people who are coming from out of state or didn\u2019t go to undergrad around here,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Moore noted the increasing emphasis placed on overall efforts to\u00a0promote student health at USC<\/a>\u00a0by administrators like Vice President for Student Affairs Ainsley Carry and Keck School of Medicine Dean Laura Mosqueda. Wellness programs for medical students are also part of a\u00a0broader effort to encourage health and well-being<\/a>\u00a0among doctors, residents, staff members and others at Keck Medicine of USC.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of these influential university leaders are making this a priority,\u201d Moore said. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of new, forward movement.\u201d<\/p>\n
